In the middle of gathering my stuff for a little weekend getaway, I noticed how much of the things I was packing were handmade by me. And I couldn’t help but stop for a moment and smile.
When I was just 15 or 16 years old I started admiring crafters, sewists, makers.

It seems that, somehow, one can become quite a lot of things by just stubbornly wishing for them to become reality.
